As its name suggests, David Austen’s fine, almost angelic, English musk rose, “Tranquillity” reflects peace. Clusters of cream-colored buds unfold to reveal full, 100+ petaled rosettes that fade to snow white with time. Offset by furrowed kelly-green foliage, this classic English rose distinguishes itself from others with its elegant petals and fragrance. The fragrance is fruity with hints of sweet ripe apple. Complementing any design scheme with its classic colors and texture, this genteel ornamental will add radiance and depth to landscapes and patios. Blooming from spring until fall, pollinators friends will declare your garden their new home.
With its heritage being traced to species throughout Europe, this rose demonstrates good disease resistance and moderate maintenance requirements. It grows upright and bushy with stems that bend slightly, adding interesting dimension, texture, color, and height to any space from spring until fall. Growing to a maximum height of 3 to 4 feet and spread of 2 to 3 feet, use this shrub in borders, hedges, and containers. Tranquillity Rose is an ideal selection for someone wanting to give their yard that classy English garden feel without having to dedicate lots of time to maintaining it.
Tranquillity Rose Care
Roses generally prefer loamy, moist, well-draining soil that is slightly acidic. If your soil lacks nutrients or drainage, you can mix in some organic compost at planting. Choose a location that not only has the right soil but also gets at least 6 hours of full sun. Plant Tranquility in a hole that is big enough to hold the root ball. Water once or twice a week, at least an inch of water total. A hungry bloomer, this shrub requires feeding once or twice a month with a formula for roses.
Prune crossed, dead, diseased, and/or damaged canes during February/March. Then, cut back the surviving canes by about a third. Cover the root zone with compost/mulch to overwinter.
Tranquillity Rose Spacing
Plant Tranquillity Rose in borders, hedges, and containers. Space shrubs approximately 3 to 4 feet apart. Add other fragrant companion plants such as lavender, rosemary, and sage to create beautiful cut-flower/herb gardens. Arrange rose stems with lime green hydrangea, lavender, baby’s breath, and Sweet Mademoiselle Hybrid Tea blossoms to create classy cottage-style bouquets.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
